Just completed – in fact you can still smell the glue..!! OK, this is my second build, and is the 1998 Monte Carlo WRC Subaru Impreza Rally Car by Tamiya. Built Out of Box, and this build was a challenge for me. I had a few disasters along the way, one of which involved TS-13 clear. The progress thread in my signature will tell the tale of what happened. Once stripped of all paint, thanks for the advice from all those who helped me I managed to get a pretty decent shine. I didn’t polish the car, I applied the decals and I took P-MAN advice with clear and decals – I didn’t do it. Instead I waxed the entire car with Tamiya Wax.. Great stuff. The shine is amazing..!! I have never applied so many decals to a car body before, and I think the decals turned out pretty good considering it was my first full body decal job. I had a lot of fun building the car, but I also had a few moments of total despair. Freakray was very helpful and provided me some parts that I broke, to enable me to finish the model – Freakray – Great guy..!!
OK – here is the model – enjoy. And yes the antenna are still loose. I’ve got to glue them in, but I first want to test CA glue with metal to plastic, as well as clear glue and see which one works better without making a mess..
